Xiaomi announces a July 16 press event for ...
Xiaomi has announced a press event for next Thursday, July 16, about an unknown product. The teaser image below is as nebulous as the event itself as it provides no additional details. The official Xiaomi forums and related social network pages have fans speculating on what the teaser image could be hinting at.
A large number of fans are betting on a new Mi TV device. The teased image, however, shows a very slim design that may be too slim for a full-size television set. Meanwhile, other users are suspecting a 5-inch Mi 4s with Snapdragon 810 SoC as the Mi 4s was rumored earlier last month to be in production. The 5.5-inch Redmi Note 2 and Redmi Note 2 Pro variants are also in the realm of possibility with Snapdragon 410 or Snapdragon 615 SoCs.
Less popular predictions relate to a successor to the aging Mi Pad. The 7.9-inch tablet carries a "Retina" display and was presented last year in May 2014. Old rumors claim that this potential Mi Pad 2 may use a Tegra K1 SoC instead of an Intel solution.
